    Hello everyone,

    The clothes I'm wearing do not express who I'm. There is absolutely no link between them and my personality. This bothers me a lot, because I don't feel comfortable in my clothes, and I really want to be wearing things that really are for me.

    The thing is that there are two problems:

    1-I don't want to imitate any style, I want to create my own style (I know that's it's easier if I just picked up a style and started copying everything, but then I won't feel comfortable as well because I won't be myself)

    2- In my country (Tunisia) the clothes are all the same. Unless I go to secondhand shops, and then I'm not sure I will be able to coordinate them

    I know that this is is a silly thing to talk about, but I really need your help.

    There's no harm at all in copying styles that seem nice and comfortable to you. I'm not sure how much my clothes express who I am though. I'm all for casual and comfort. Hm well, perhaps it does say a lot about me :D

    Just take things apart and put them back together - Frankenstien's monster, but in clothing form. Of course, you seem to want to coordinate clothes, and I have no interest in that... so I'm not sure how to help you.

    On another note... I always wanted to visit Tunisia!

    I think it doesn't matter anymore.

    it sounds like you have to jump in the deep end, and make them yourself. start with a sketch pad and a pencil, and sketch out ideas for tops and bottoms, skirts and dresses, whatever you feel might look good/ feel good on you. maybe you see someone ion a cute shaped top, but you hate the design of the fabric. remember the shapes and find a fabric that suits you better.
